GLUTEN FREE OATMEAL CHOCOLATE
CHIP COOKIES
 
These were originated out of my frustration with rice flour cookies after finding out I was sensitive to wheat. They have the texture of flour cookies and taste just as good!

1 cup butter
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup sorghum flour
1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1 tablespoon arrowroot or corn starch
1/2 tsp xanthan gum
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt (omit if using salted butter)
3 cups quick cooking oats
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F degrees. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth.

Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Combine the dry ingredients, except for the oats and slowly mix into the wet ingredients. Mix in the quick oats and chocolate chips.

Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.

Bake for 12 minutes in a preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool for 5 minutes on sheet before transferring over to a wire rack to cool.

CELIAC ALERT: Oats in the United States are NOT gluten free. Due to crop rotation (wheat/oats) oats in the United States are not certified Gluten Free. Some Irish oats are. Just be sure to check the labels. This may not affect a wheat sensitivity, but will affect a person with Celiac Disease.

The Bob's Red Mill Brand (which will be known by Celiac's and those with gluten sensitivity) does have gluten-free rolled oats which are guaranteed to have been grown in fields without wheat or barley or rye. I ordered mine online from that company that is named after a jungle and starts with "A"-Enjoy!

Wonderful! I am also egg free so have found that in cookies using a small envelope of unflavored gelatin plus 3/4 cup of milk for each 2 eggs works great. The cookies were just as good. No g. f. flour taste.

You need to use Gluten free oats for this recipe. Regular oats contain gluten.
